"The pound is still performing very well on a trade-weighted basis and pound-dollar is no longer being dragged lower by the relentless fall of euro-dollar."
- Nomura International Plc (based on Bloomberg)
Pair's Outlook
The Euro keeps dragging the Sterling lower, which has fallen through the weekly S1 and to the S2 level. Now there is a good chance for a bullish correction, though it is likely to be capped at 1.5050. Next week the Cable is expected to resume the sell-off, with the medium-term target at 1.48, but the support at 1.4900/1.4850 may delay the arrival of the pair at the 2013 low. The technical indicators are largely mixed at the moment.
Traders' Sentiment
The ratio between the bulls (57%) and bears (43%) stayed the same, despite a precipitous decline. On the other hand, the percentage of traders planning to sell the British Pound substantially increased, namely from 56 to 81%.
